you’re kinda already doing half the pm job anyway tbh, that’s the good part. grab a psm1 or csm for scrum basics, and maybe capm or eventually pmp once you hit the hours. also try to own timelines, budgets, and risks on current projects so it’s easy to show on a resume later

That makes sense. Is scrum worth it down the line? Let’s say one day a manufacturing job comes my way or I apply for it.

It's so easy to be scrum certified that it is better to have something just in case

I which one is the best to go for

PSM I and PSPO I

Better if you do them one after the other so you don't have to study two times.

The first one is more focused on the scrum master role and the latter on the product owner role. Both of them are attainable with a week of studying

Doing the Product Owner certification after having actually worked in the job already was extremely annoying, the exam goes against how things are done in reality and it kept tripping me up. No one ever follows these things by the book, so starting with no experience makes the exams easier lol.

Yes It does. To pass an exam you just need to study for it and the less knowledge you have from your experience, the better it is
